high quality teacher in every classroom.
The American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA) supports
reform in four key areas including
increasing teacher effectiveness and
promoting the equitable distribution of
effective teachers. Therefore, this study
describes the distribution of teacher
quality within districts over time and
any changes in that distribution
associated with district strategies to
promote an equitable distribution of
high quality teachers.
This study will provide information
over time about the distribution of
teacher quality and will document
district efforts to promote teacher equity
within a select number of districts. The
research questions are:
• What is the distribution of teacher
quality across schools within districts?
• What strategies and policies are
districts promoting to address
inequitable distribution of teacher
quality? How these strategies/policies
are enacted (e.g. strategy determination,
goals and objectives, theory of action,
features, administration, necessary
resources, and challenges to
administration, intended duration)?
• What is the relationship between
the district policies/strategies and the
distribution of teacher quality?
The study will be conducted in up to
30 geographically-dispersed school
districts. The study will document the
distribution of teacher quality, within
participating districts, using teacher
value-added analyses. The study will
also describe changes in the distribution
of teacher quality across the outcomes
years 2010–2011 through 2012–2013.
Data collection will include student
achievement obtained from
administrative records, annual semistructured district leadership interviews
about district strategies and policies to
address inequitable distribution of
teacher quality, and district
administrative records/personnel data.
